Emmanuel Moseley Fantasy

Former San Francisco 49ers cornerback Emmanuel Moseley reached an agreement with the Detroit Lions on Tuesday on a one-year, $6 million deal, according to a source. Moseley became a starting outside cornerback the last two years in the Bay Area, but he lasted only five games in 2022 due to a torn ACL and MCL in his knee. It remains to be seen if the 26-year-old will be ready for the 2023 season, but if he is, he should be a starter for the defensively challenged Lions. The former undrafted free agent has accumulated 162 tackles (128 solo), five tackles for loss, four interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 33 passes defensed and a fumble recovery in 45 career games (33 starts) for the 49ers.

ESPN's Nick Wagoner writes that the San Francisco 49ers will likely focus on re-signing cornerback Emmanuel Moseley (knee) this offseason. He was playing like a No. 1 cornerback before he tore his left ACL in October. It won't be easy to bring him back, though, after he had five pass breakups and an interception in the first five games in 2022. If the 49ers can't re-sign him, cornerback will suddenly become a pressing need for them ahead of the 2023 season. The 26-year-old could be out until training camp this summer, which could lower his cost on the open market. The Niners defense was one of the best in the NFL yet again last year, but defending the pass was one of their weaknesses.

An MRI exam confirmed that San Francisco 49ers cornerback Emmanuel Moseley (knee) suffered a torn left ACL in the Week 5 win over the Carolina Panthers. He'll have season-ending surgery on his knee, according to a source. The 26-year-old was using crutches after the game on Sunday and wasn't able to put any weight on his leg. In his five games played with San Francisco this year, Moseley had 21 tackles (18 solo), an interception returned for a touchdown and five passes defensed for the Niners secondary.
